Pre-Roasted Durum Wheat Semolina for Quick Halwa, Upma and Rava Idli

Shankar Roasted Rava - 1kg is a pre-roasted sooji (semolina) made from durum wheat — a convenient, time-saving staple for South Asian households across the UK. Shankar is a well-regarded brand in the British Indian grocery market, and this roasted rava skips the dry-roasting step so you can go straight to cooking your halwa, upma, or rava idli without any extra effort.

Why Choose Shankar Roasted Rava 1kg?

Roasting semolina in a dry pan is an essential step in many Indian recipes — it removes the raw flour taste and develops a warm, nutty aroma. Shankar does this for you, so your halwa is ready faster and your upma carries that authentic toasted flavour from the start. The 1kg size is ideal for busy households that cook South Indian and North Indian dishes regularly, offering great value and reducing prep time on weekday mornings or quick festive sweets.

Serving Suggestions

• Add directly to ghee and pour in sugar syrup for a quick, aromatic sooji halwa — no dry-roasting needed
• Temper with mustard seeds, curry leaves, and vegetables for a fast, flavourful upma
• Mix with yoghurt and eno for soft, spongy rava idli in less time
• Cook with saffron, ghee, and dry fruits for a festive sheera or kesari
• Use as a base for thin, crispy rava dosa with a pre-toasted depth of flavour
